Kinder

I always said I wouldn't teach kindergarten...they're too young for my personality and I feel like I'm babysitting half the time. Last year I taught a couple of frustrating kindergarten classes a week. They couldn't understand any English, and so felt at liberty to bounce around the room, screeching and throwing things while I tried to maintain order. No thanks! However, these kinders are different. I only have 12 to a class; I see them every day for two 40-min periods, and then I switch to another kinder for 2 more periods. They can already speak wonderful English, and are generally very well-behaved and delightful. Seriously, I can never have a bad morning when I have these little munchkins to teach. They're great.
